What is Presstream?

Designed to help those companies who send large volumes of magazines, newsletters, journals or periodicals. You must have accurate Postcodes on at least 90% of the mailing and you cannot use this service to send catalogues,
brochures, directories or direct mail. Again the mail needs to be prepared for the Royal Mail.  This usually involves processing the data through their database to assign codes to each records so they can be sorted into batches for easier distribution through the postal system.

Use this service when you need 1st or 2nd class service (because M3 1400 is cheaper) and your mailing piece fits
the criteria.

To use Presstream, at least one-sixth of the Periodical must contain editorial content and be published, posted and
received at least twice a year. All items in a mailing must be the same shape, size and weight, unless you've made
a special arrangement beforehand with Royal Mail in writing.

If you need a magazine delivered regularly and on time every time this is the service for you. Presstream can be taylored  to suit your needs. Just let us know what you want to do and we will liase with the Royal Mail to ensure your needs are serviced.
